When it comes to wavefront sensing of the human eye, there does not seem to be an agreed set of specifications for detector selection. In my career, camera choice seem to rely on legacy more so than anything else. The earliest labs bought really expensive cameras (i.e. COHU) which eventually became obsolete.
New researchers joining the lab later on either use the old cameras if they still worked or buy the new model that the same manufacturer intended to replace the older model. Since the obsolete model was typically top-of-the-line, a suggested new model is also often the case (along with the hefty price tag).
Perhaps we can all save some money by establishing specific criteria and pick the cheapest camera that does the job? What are your requirements and why?
